RaceAmerica Model 3220 Timer SBD
MAINTENANCE
The 3220 Series Console, Beam Emitter, and
Track Sensors do not require any maintenance.
To insure uninterrupted operation on raceday,
it is suggested to keep track of battery usage hours
so as to have fully charged batteries. Plan to re-
place the ‘C’ cells in the Beam Emitter after about
200 hours use. If you are using rechargeable ‘C’
cells, recharge them each day. Low battery volt-
age (Emitter voltage below 4.3VDC) will cause
intermittent operation of the system resulting in
intermittent events at the finish line as the battery
power weakens.
To maintain the highest level of timing
accuracy and minimize false trips, annual pre-
ventative maintenance and calibration should be
performed on all system track sensors and beam
emitter units.
SPARE PARTS
Further to minimize race program inter-
ruptions, RaceAmerica recommends some spare
parts. A spare emitter/sensor pair and end of track
cable sections should be available in the event of
an unfortunate accident during a program. Con-
tact RaceAmerica for availability and pricing of
spares items.
SUPPORT AGREEMENTS
Support agreements are available from
RaceAmerica providing Telephone Assistance on
technical issues and operational questions, repair
and/or replacement of hardware failures, Software
